Wheelchair User spaces: For home supporters - 11 in East Stand (south end); 8 in Main Stand (south end). 

For way supporters - 8 in the Main Stand (north end). 

Sightlines are good and views are unobstructed. 

The club provides a companion ticket, the cost of which is included in the price of the disabled supporter’s ticket. Whilst every effort is made to provide a companion space adjacent to the wheelchair user space, this may not always be possible due to demand. When this is the case, the companion seat will be allocated to the closest available position to the wheelchair user space.
